To solve this problem divide each side of the inequality by #color(red)(0.5)#

Explanation:

To solve this problem divide each side of the inequality by #color(red)(0.5)#

#(0.5x)/color(red)(0.5) < -15/color(red)(0.5)#

#(color(red)(cancel(color(black)(0.5)))x)/cancel(color(red)(0.5)) < -15/color(red)(0.5)#

#x < -15/0.5#

#x < -30#
